How our green ammonia system works

Modular, Containerized, Autonomous

Talus Renewables, an energy technology company, has pioneered the first commercial, modular, de-carbonized green ammonia system that makes the local production and distribution of a critical raw material cost-competitive and more reliable.
Talus produces green ammonia at or near the point of use from renewable power, water, and air, stabilizing the cost of the essential raw material and guaranteeing supply certainty for local agriculture communities, mining sites, and maritime shipping.
